After completing the account registration, real-name authentication is required. It cannot be used without authentication.

It is best to take the photo against a solid color background, so that it will be more recognizable. Also note that the ID card must be original and within the validity period. Click [Upload] to upload the front (portrait side) and back (national emblem side) of the ID card respectively, and click [Continue]. Then scan your face according to the system prompts to complete the authentication.
Step 3: Account security settings
Although we have registered an account and completed real-name authentication, our current account still has security risks. In order to further ensure the security of the account, we also need to set up security settings for the account.
1. Return to the Binance homepage, click the little man avatar in the upper right corner, and find [Account]
2. Click [Account Security]. Set up the authenticator app, email address, and phone number respectively. These three items are very important. It is recommended to set them all.
3. Regarding the phone number item, since we used the mobile phone number when registering, it will show a green check mark indicating that it has been bound, so we don’t need to worry about it.
For email verification, click [Manage] at the back, select [Add Email], enter the verification code and click [Submit], and enter the email number for binding as prompted.
4. Here we focus on the binding of the authenticator.
Click [Manage] behind the Authenticator APP, click "Enable Authenticator APP", enter the verification code from your mobile phone number, and click [Submit]
5. The authenticator QR code and the 16-digit key below will appear.
6. Open the Google Authenticator APP (the download method of the Google Authenticator APP will be introduced in the later part of the article). You can click the camera in the picture below to scan the QR code above or enter the 16-digit key below the QR code above. Both methods are acceptable. Then click the "Next" button in the picture above.
After completing the above operations, a 6-digit verification code will appear on your Google Authenticator APP. Enter this verification code into the authenticator and click the [Submit] button. This completes the binding of Google Authenticator.
After successfully binding Google Authenticator, the next time you log in to your account or make a withdrawal, in addition to entering your account password, you will also need to fill in the Google Authenticator verification code for double verification to ensure the security of your account funds.
Step 4: Download the Binance APP
1) Download on Android phone
Android users can use the browser that comes with their phone to download directly.
If a virus warning appears during the download process, just ignore it.
2) Download on iPhone
1. Apple phone users need to register an Apple ID from another region first. You can watch the video below to register. If you are unsuccessful or find it troublesome, you can also buy an Apple ID from another region on Baidu. It only costs a few dollars.
2. After you have an overseas Apple ID, open the app store and click on the small avatar in the upper right corner. Scroll down to the end. Click [Log Out] to log out of the original ID.

Step 5: Buy USDT
1. Click "One-click Coin Purchase" in the upper left corner of the Binance homepage and select "Custom Area"
2. Click "Buy", select USDT as the currency, and enter the amount to be purchased. The "CNY" at the end means RMB, which is the legal currency we will use. Select the payment method you are used to.
At this time, the system will filter out some merchants that can be traded for us, and the order of the merchants' prices is from low to high. Because we want to "buy", of course we want to buy from merchants with low prices, large transaction volumes and high praise rates. For example, "Jiazhihuo Shang", which has a transaction volume of more than 14,000 and a praise rate of 100%, we can buy from this merchant and click "Buy USDT"
3. Enter the amount you want to buy again. Enter 100. It will automatically calculate that you can receive 13.45 USDT for paying 100 RMB.
Please be sure to read the transaction terms of the advertiser carefully and pay the merchant according to the requirements. After confirming that there is no problem, click [Buy USDT]
4. Order generation. You need to pay the merchant according to the payment method displayed on the page within the specified time. After the payment is completed, click [I have paid, notify the other party] and wait for the seller to release the currency to us.
Notice:
After completing the payment, click "I have paid, notify the seller". Do not click if you have not paid.
Do not send any questions about buying coins to the seller in the chat box;
In order to avoid your account being frozen, you must pay with your real name;
Before making payment, please verify that the payee is the same as the one on the order.
5. The USDT we purchased will be transferred to our fund account. Click the "Wallet" button in the upper right corner and find [Fund Account], where you can check the balance.
Step 6: Purchase SOL

4. Select "Market Price". The market price means that he will give us the most suitable price in the current market. We can directly enter the purchase amount, or pull the slider to select the purchase quantity, and click [Buy SOL]. The purchase will be successful.
